May 15,2010 Naval Air Museum

One of the things we wanted to do while here was go to the Naval Air Museum in Pensacola. We got up this morning and arrived about 10 at the museum. This place is huge.


Sam in one cockpit trainers.
This place is immense and there's so much to do. We took a 45 minute trolley ride out to the a flight field where they have many planes. They are in the process of building another building to house all the others that are on the field.
They also have a free guided tour by volunteer retired pilots. Our tour guide gave us a informative and fun tour covering early aircraft,modern aircraft, and WW2to Korean War aircraft. In this museum they have a IMAX theater showing The Magic of Flight and the other Hubble. We chose to see the Magic of Flight,and rode along with the Blue Angels.They also have a Cubi Bar Cafe where you can have lunch,nothing special. We spent all day here and still could of spent more time. This museum is was one of the best we've seen and highly recommend it for everyone. It is also kid friendly. In closing for the day here is a photo of the Blue Angels.
